Prior to the start of the footway slurry sealing works that were carried out in the Forthill area in August, the grit bin that usually sits outside the sheltered complex in Forthill Drive was removed. Despite the works being complete and the first snow fall already upon us the grit bin has never been put back. Being an area where the majority of residents are elderly, the lack of a grit bin can have a huge impact on the ability of people to get out and about safely. I have asked the city engineer’s office to ensure that it is returned.
